$89.99 USD
A periodized plan aimed at maximising muscle growth - our best hypertrophy plan to date
THIS IS A TRAINING PROGRAM BASED ON A GRADUAL, STEP-LIKE, VOLUME PROGRESSION AND INTENSITY MODULATION
A CYCLICAL gradual increase in Volume with ‘deloads’ included, from 70 to 110 work sets a week
3 x 4 week blocks with 4 workouts a week
Here’s Coach Thib’s take on why cycling your training volume is key to continuing your progress:
”While progressively increasing volume-load is pretty much a prerequisite to keep progressing, it must be done very gradually and in a cyclic manner. Your body has a limited capacity to positively adapt to training stress. Once you exceed it you will get diminishing returns for the invested efforts and eventually stagnate, or even regress.
This is why I believe in periodization, or the use of training cycles. And no, they don’t have to be complicated.
This training cycle will have a gradual increase in volume-load stemming from an increase in sets and/or the use of more intense training methods.
When the cycle is over you deload for 1-2 weeks and start a new cycle.”

How is it structured?
It utilises a 12 week cyclical training plan, based on the principles of block periodization. It is comprised of three blocks ( 4 weeks each) and 4 workouts each week :
Workout 1 – Push Heavy
Workout 2 – Pull Volume
Workout 3 – Push Volume
Workout 4 – Pull Heavy
Key things you need to know to get the most out of this program
- Eat in Caloric surplus This is NOT a plan that will work for fat loss purposes. The amount of work is too high to be performed in a state of caloric deficit. You will quickly burn out and become catabolic if you undereat.
- Volume days Key is to focus on maximising muscle tension, utilising slow eccentric reps
- Heavy days Move as much weight as you can for the prescribed rep number/zone.
- BE.LESS.BAD!
